“Hold me now, it’s hard for me to say, I’m sorry” (With apologies to Barry Manilow)
By Dave Wallace
Why is saying “I’m sorry” to a client so hard to utter?
When you apologize, do you apologize for your apology?
Did you know that if you apologize incorrectly it can be fatal to your business?
If you’re in business, you’ve made mistakes. After all, we’re all human. So, you apologize. But, did you know that a poorly crafted apology can do more harm than good? Learning how to apologize is critical to your ongoing success, unless you’re the one business in the world that never makes a mistake!
In our time together, you’ll learn about a scientific theory called the “Service Recovery Paradox (SRP)”. You’ll learn the key elements of a business apology. And, most importantly, you’ll learn how to choreograph a business apology to maximize the SRP.
Register if you want to have your business apology prepared in advance!
ATTENDEE BONUS: Attendees to this workshop will be able to schedule a 1:1 meeting with me to discuss your sales challenges. It doesn’t have to be about business apologies, it could be about anything having to do with your sales/business development efforts. Special attendee pricing will be explained at the event.
MEET OUR EXPERT: DAVE WALLACE
Dave Wallace, our 1,800th Member. Four-time presenter, showing us how to say “I’m sorry” in business.
B2B sales are more complex than ever. Status quo bias is real and incredibly difficult to overcome. Storytelling is of paramount importance in sales. And businesses that focus their storytelling efforts on organizations that they can confidently define as an ideal customer increase their average sale size, decrease the length of their sales cycle, and increase their pipeline close rate. Translation: they increase revenue.
With 42+ years of experience, there isn’t much I haven’t seen, experienced, or had to deal with. I’ve been where you’ve been, felt what you’ve felt, and done what you’ve done.
I’m a proud graduate of the University of Notre Dame. In November 2017 I became an Amazon #1 Bestselling Author. My wife and I have two children, one grandchild, and an English Setter.
Outside of work, I’m a passionate cyclist, logging in excess of 7,000 miles per year and running a 300+ person cycling group. Cycling has taught me three important things that are directly applicable to my work: humility, tenacity, and teamwork.

Be Prepared to create stronger networking connections. Be Prepared is not just the Boy Scout motto. It’s the way to get the most out of your networking efforts.
Whether you aim to do personal or professional networking, Meetup.com is a great site for enlarging your network. Here we’ll share a couple of tips to use at Meetup.com and other networking sites to help you make stronger networking connections.
Before you go to your networking event or Meetup, take a look at who else will be there. At meetup, just click on their names and you’ll be taken to the profiles of attendees. Make a list of two or three (or more) who you’d like to meet. Have a question or two in mind for when you meet them. Include “I noticed on your Member profile that your ideal prospect is “X” – can you tell me more about that? Or, your profile says you’re also a Member of “X” groups; how do you like them?
The first time I shared this tip with a member of Wisconsin Business Owners, just before a Meetup, she was looking at the list of attendees online and exclaimed, “Welcome, Theresa” as the new member who’d registered walked through the door. Theresa was pleasantly surprised to be so warmly greeted by name, and a light bulb clicked on for the member who greeted Theresa. Both got off to a strong start for the day.

Practical Networking & True Relationship-Building for 21st Century Businesses
by Maggie Mongan & Tamara Burkett
Practical Networking and Relationship Building are essential parts of your business development activities. These activities look different than they did 10 years ago. Time to learn how to create business relationships to improve your business’s success rate.
During our time together Maggie will:
– Define how networking and relationship-building are different activities and what to focus on during each one.
– Phrases to create unique and memorable conversations.
– Reveal and correct the #1 Networking Myth.
– The 2 things to do with everyone you meet.
– Tips for better networking conversations and follow-ups.
Next, Tamara will discuss the power of a 21st century tool to boost your networking and relationship building activities:
– Most of us know the value of CRM and might even have one, but most of us lack the discipline of using our CRM. The two main barriers are data entry and developing a follow up process. During our time together, I will explain:
– How to quickly enter contact info after networking. I’ll include a strategy for prioritizing contacts and identifying relationships roles.
– How to stay memorable. Identifying reasons to reach out to add value to others.
